1982 Mustang Suspension

The Mustang’s front-engine, rear-wheel drive layout is the foundation for a great handling car, and a huge contributor to the Mustang’s success on the street and the race track since its introduction in 1964. Making power is a pretty straightforward undertaking for Mustang owners, but getting your car to handle just the way you want can require a little more finesse.

Give Your Mustang the Suspension It Needs

Deciding how to upgrade your 1982 Mustang’s suspension to best match your driving style can be overwhelming because of the sheer number of choices. Between shocks, springs, sway bars and braces, it can be hard to know where to start. To help you figure it out, the experts at CJ Pony Parts put together this handy list of our favorite suspension upgrades and how they can help your car hold the road better.

• Suspension Kits: If you know you want to tighten up the way your car feels on the road, but you’re not sure where to begin, a suspension kit makes a great solution. Available at a number of price points, these kits include a selection of parts that have been hand-selected to work in unison and deliver noticeable handling improvements. Most suspension kits include shocks and springs, and sway bars are often included as well. Higher-end suspension kits include coil-over dampers in place of the shocks and springs, and some also include other pieces like strut tower braces and adjustable camber plates.
• Shocks: Your shocks are some of the most important parts of your 1982 Mustang’s suspension. A car with blown shocks will have poor body control under breaking and cornering forces, resulting in excessive weight transfer and the feeling of “float” during hard driving. We offer a number of excellent gas shocks to replace your factory units in standard and adjustable trims.
• Springs: Best friends of the shocks we just mentioned, your car’s springs help the suspension do its job by making sure your tires remain in contact with the road surface. At CJ Pony Parts, you’ll find a selection of factory replacement springs as well as progressive-rate performance springs and lowering springs for more performance-minded applications.

Upgrading your 1982 Mustang’s suspension can be a fun and rewarding way to get the most out of your car. Visit CJ Pony Parts today and find out more about the great suspension upgrades we carry!
